Agadir AGA Airport Shuttle

Over 15 miles from downtown, reaching Agadir coast can be a difficult trek, though an easy feat if you’re prepared ahead of time. Reserve a shuttle to avoid public transport schedules as well as traffic, reserving with either local companies or area providers to make each arrival a spectacular one.

Choose which neighborhood you plan to get dropped off in before taking the plunge, either staying in the south beach area of Founty, home to several beach resorts as well as the Casino Atlantic Palace, or go all out at Secteur Touristique (Tourism Sector) for easy access to the city’s best resorts, from Club Med to the Royal Mirage, not to mention shoreline cafés, theaters, and the opening entrance to Agadir Birds Valley’s massive aviary. For something close to the beach but away from the buzz, choose somewhere more inland, whether it’s Boutchakat’s close access to urban gardens and shops to Abattoirs busy bazaars at Sunday Market.

Ensure you’ve got every aspect of your trip in order by printing out all confirmation emails, starting with your shuttle reservation. Do the same with hotel bookings and local tour agencies, one of the most popular being Agadir Tours. Store all physical documents in a travel journal for safe-keeping as well, also taking special care of your extra important documents by scanning them, including passport, identification, and medical prescriptions. Keep those digital scans stored away somewhere they can’t get lost, choosing between a secure email inbox or wide variety of cloud storage services.

About Agadir-Al Massira Airport
A simple one-floor facility that’s half an hour from the coastline, Agadir-Al Massira Airport offers minimal convenience inside and out. Those in town for something other than vacation may want to consider the nearby airport hotels instead, the closest options being Villa du Souss, which is located along the banks of the Oued Souss north of the airport, and Motel Ribis, a low-cost option south of the nearby city of Ait Melloul. More secluded options include Takad Dream Rural, which rests just east of the shoreline trails and forests of Souss-Massa National Park, and Takad Dream Hostel Plage, located on the beach within the same national park.

Those planning to stay inside the airport for a long duration should cozy up to on-site goodies, making yourself at home with some souvenirs, snacks, and reading material at the Dufry Shops/Hudson News combo, or the even larger IDFS Duty-Free, which contains cosmetics, local candies, and daily deals. There are also rare collectibles and antique items sold at Trésors El Mamoun, French fashion courtesy of Kounouz, and lux jewelry at Top A Argent. Grab some food at a variety of eateries as well, choosing between the baked goods & coffee at Le Comptoir d’Agadir or fine dining from Matéo, also considering light snacks and sandwiches in the waiting area.

And beyond the airport’s simple walls lie a treasure trove of even more adventures, easily accessible so long as you’ve got the gull to explore, whether it’s through the rock tunnels and narrow alleys of Lqliâa, or the simple ambiance of Ait Melloul, a city located south of Agadir and renowned for its views of the Sous River as well as close access to the Souss-Massa National Park. Some of the most popular eateries around the airport include Café Ali Afoulki, located north of the terminal, and Café Salam in Lqliâa, both of which offer fresh-brewed coffee and sweets.
